Find the Right Hospice Care in Crittenden County
About 9 hospices currently serve Crittenden County, including 1 nonprofit and 1 with a dedicated inpatient facility. Use this list to compare options and talk with the hospices that feel right for your family. Crittenden County is wider than Marion. The hospitals families name are in Memphis, Tennessee. There is no hospital in Marion or West Memphis that most families name first. The I-40 and I-55 bridges are the night split, and a Tennessee license is not an Arkansas yes. Use the Marion page when the home is inside that city. Use this county page when the address is another community in Crittenden County, or when someone may leave a hospital for a home that is not in that city. Ask which team would send the first nurse to that street after the discharge desk closes. West Memphis has its own page. It is not the county seat.

Frequently Asked Questions About Hospices in Crittenden County
Do we have to use the hospice a hospital names in Crittenden County?
No. A hospital or physician can share names they work with often. You may still compare any Medicare-certified hospice that will come to the patient’s address. Calling for information does not enroll you.
Should we contact more than one hospice about Crittenden County?
Yes. Compare who covers the exact address, how soon a nurse can get there, and who answers after hours. A referral is a starting point, not a requirement to use one brand.
Can hospice care be provided at home in Crittenden County?
Yes. Most hospice care happens where the patient already lives — a house or apartment, or assisted living, memory care, or a nursing facility. Ask the team to confirm that specific address, not only the city or county name.
How quickly can hospice start in Crittenden County?
When hospice is medically appropriate, many teams begin within about 24–48 hours, and some can start the same day when staffing allows. Ask who comes first and how a night call is handled. Then verify by phone.
Can a Memphis hospice serve this county?
Only if that team is set up for the Arkansas address. Ask.
Which page for West Memphis?
The West Memphis page. Use this county page for another Crittenden County community.
